Students Tell Of Education // / / f~~?? | College Students Deal with Various Phases in Education Week Program The opportunities offered by the American system of education and the responsibilities of those whoi avail themselves of these outstand-1 ing opportunities, were dealt with yesterday morning by Bloomsburg State Teachers College students at | an assembly period devoted to the I observance of American Education Week. Various phases of the general theme were ably developed by Miss Betty Hawk, Miss Eda B. Beilhartz, Acchard H. Foote, Catherine Oplinger, C. Grant Brittingham, Ruth L. Bniidon and Jack R. Shortess. Musical features were provided by tbi A Cappella choir and College Chorus, with the music directed by Miss Harriet Moore and with Mrs. John K. Miller at the piano. Songs I used in the program were ???America [ ihe Beautiful,??? ???I Am An American??? and ???America.??? The program opened with Stewart Edwards reading the message of President Rosevelt regarding education week. Miss Hawk read the Scriptures and the College Chorus sang ???America the Beautiful.??? Miss Hawk then related the origin arid significance of American education week. The first education week was in 1921 and regarding the week | she said ???Estimates indicate that! eight million parents and other citi-1 zens visit their schools each Novem- J ber during this observance. They learn about modern school practices and consult with teachers concerning the progress of their children. Millions of other citizens are reached through newspapers and magazines, radio, public meetings and message sent into homes. Better schools, better understood, are the result of these activities.??? ???Strengthening Civic Loyalties??? I was the theme developed by Miss Eda Bessie Beilhartz. She described the loyal citizen as one who ???believes in democracy. Even though all goals are not attained, he has unwavering faith in our democratic ideals. What is more, the loyal citi-1 zen tries to understand his government. B[e tries to keep himself informed on issues that arise which are to be settled by public opinion and the ballot. He realizes that no nation can remain free unless the citizens understand their government and act individually and col- | lectively to make it effective.??? She spoke of the school as ???the proving ground, of citizenship.??? Bloomsburg this past season dropped ... js-r...,. I ped back to seven games but with f indications of better gridiron days i on the hill, another contest may be added for 1941. Eight games make | for a much better schedule and it : is highly probable that one of the Husky tilts of next Fall will be played under the lights at Athletic Park. - Rictffcrd H. FooteTbf tOwn( spoke opi "Perpetuating Individual Libertiies??? and observed that ???in a civilized nation, liberty does not mean freedom to do entirely as one chooses. There are rights of others each must respect. We find true liberty by denying ourselves smaller privileges in order to secure great , basic rights for all. Education perpetuates individual liberties by developing a people able to govern themselves and determined that America shall remain the land of the free and the home of a people unafraid of the duties that liberty en-* tails.??? The A Cappella Choir and College Chorus sang ???I Am An ( American.??? I The vital part of Jfiuman resources??? in development of the nation wasj taken up by G. Grant Brittingham who said: ???People ordinarily i think of the federal government as a, distant mechanism set up to perform! remote functions of lawmaking and taxing with little or no relation to the daily life of the individual citizen. The fact is the federal gov-( ernmeht is a great service agency. \ Through its activities it promotes, the use of human and physical re-??? sources in ways of most vital importance to individuals. There is no! asset that should be more prized by a human than his ability to use to the maximum advantage! his physical and mental energies.??? j. The matter of financing public education was dealt with by Miss Ruth Brandon. She spoke of the cost of education rising ???because' more and better schools and school; services have been provided to more pupils and because the purchasing power of the dollar has been greatly reduced. Although, due to the decline in the birth rate, enrollment in elementary schools is-' falling, enrollment in secondary schools, where costs are considerably higher, have increased sharply because of the lack of employment of youth.??? In summarizing Miss Brandon deducted that ???it is first evident that costs are increasing both in state and nation because better education is being provided and because more students are attending secondary schools which cost more per person.??? The concluding address was by Jack Shortess, of town, who in dealing with ???Building Economic Security??? asserted ???We are not dealing with just the children of school age.' We are dealing with the whole of the American people. You all know, from personal experience, that the students carry their thoughts and ideas home to their parents and relatives and herein lies our task. We must plant the ideas of economic I security in these fertile young minds. We teachers must develop skilled minds and hands; teach and encourage healthful living; provide voca-| tional guidance and training; develop intelligence on economics problems; provide consumer educa-??? tion, and promote scientific ad- I vance.??? The program concluded with thej singing of ???America.??? ???
